Kev....I'm actually having Brother's 4x4 in Ontario do the installation on Tuesday. When you installed your lift, did the Jeep look weird with the 31" tires? I'm thinking about leaving my tires for now because 5 Baja Claws are going to cost me $1000. I;m thinking about just leaving the duelers on for now.

Cargo, My uncle owns a tire shop and I always get mky tires form him Unless he advises me otherwise. Usually if the tires are expensive for him, he will tell me to get it elsewhere.

I kept it pretty simple:

Wheels - Crawler Soft 8's - 15"
Tires - ProComp MT’s - 32x11 ½
Lift - 2" RE BB

Tube Doors were dropped off by the birthday faerie (BaltChief)

Down the road (no pun intended ) I might go for a 1" body lift and a slightly larger tire. Other than that, I couldn't be happier.

Rawk - Are you running 15 x 8 wheels or 15 x 10?
